Normal? Well, few would agree it's normal, but yes, it's an espresso bar that adjoins our family rec room. The two-group La Marzocco Strada is for side-by-side coffee comparisons and get-togethers (e.g., 07-15-2011 Friday Espresso Meet-up). Someday I plan to do a walkthru video of the equipment I use for reviews.trihard wrote:On a side note, I'm curious if that is your normal setup?
I use short hoppers and fill them at most with 2 days worth of coffee. It looked sunny in the video, but that's because the trees are bare. Come springtime, the foliage will block out all direct sunlight from those windows.trihard wrote:A question, though, is without curtains on the windows your coffee beans are stored in direct sunlight...do you use just use them up so fast that it doesn't matter?
